Should you circumcise him? Of course not! I'd check deeper in kidney reflux disease, or any kind of bubble bath solutions you might be using. Allergies might be something, too. But to circumcise him when you only got a 50% chance and no guarantee could prove to be a costly mistake... especially if/when the UTIs return. Have you or any doctors been retracting him, because forced retraction is an unnecessary thin that can only cause harm than do good. The average age for a boy to become retractable is 10 (source: NOCIRC March 2008 newsletter) and the *only* person that should be doing the retraction is the OWNER of the penis (your son!), but at a much later age. If a *girl* had 5 UTIs, nobody would suggest cutting off a piece of HER genitals. I'd look deeper into any issues w/ the kidneys. Best of luck to you!
Check deeper in the body for the problem
